How to contain?
BR is purples/lilacs (not walls just bedding & art)
In the entry, on the floor is a soft aqua ceramic strawberry basket $2 2nd hand, been there couple years (aqua is to be the accent in not yet renovated sewing room)
Aqua not the color, but, hey, a dif accent is fine, right? And containerization is primo. Makes things look like they belong.
two nosesprays and a tincture
I could put the pens/pencils IN the drawer, but I tend to leave them out, and it's handy. To, you know, have them at hand.
One pencil was out of lead, hunted in the desk lap drawer. Here's a pencil with loose lead, and no eraser to hold it in. Carry erasers & pencil to nightstand. Hmm 7, need 5. Dig in drawer again. All the way in back 2 of a 3 pk of 5mm lead. Excellent. Loaded pencil, not a "fav", but close. Found an eraser that fit the other. Test a pen, fail, toss.
Nightstand top containerized. Still needs cleaning, and a fresh dresser scarf. 'Twill happen. Perhaps.
get out a replacement for an empty nosespray, use the sprays
ToDo
clean broom bristles
sweep kitchen
move trashcan & paper bag pantry goods to k

Good to see you here, BetsyMarie and mouseanne .   Repackaged food. Took out compostables. Did some reading in car manual about door locks and heating.  Call back the alternative insurance company and get exact specs so I can better compare side by side. Read current insurance company's policy quotes. Add news and game account to tablet.
Cut the driver's side mat to fit. |

Hello
My 3
Vacuumed the sofa
Got all trash out including old fridge food
Ran some unwanted errands.
2 black garden bags out for the trash. We are working on another section that's easier. Just a bush that grew out of the concrete somehow and got big. Then lots of old leaves to bag.
The line for gas was bad so I'll do that tomorrow
Dh has been working on dishes

Hi, oust! I once had a rosebush growing up through the slats of my deck. The bush in concrete sound more challenging. Started dishes soaking. Washed dishes. Did bulk cooking. Call back the alternative insurance company and get exact specs so I can better compare side by side. Read current insurance company's policy quotes. Add news and game account to tablet.

BetsyMarie What do you use for cocoa? I used to use regular dutch-processed cocoa but didn't get much out of that. I now use raw cacao powder (cacao, not cocoa) which is from the same cocoa bean but processed differently. It's more expensive, but I get more out of it, with extra nutrients, and it gives me extra endorphins. I have even noticed differences in the various brands of cacao powder.

I grew up with generic Hershey's and loved it. As an adult a friend gave me a bag of Navitas, and I've been hooked on 'better stuff' ever since. Maybe a decade ago I went on a cocoa/cacao powder oddessy and tried many kinds as well as mixing some together, most raw but in the end have settled on Navitas. I really like it, it's readily available, and is consistent. And Costco sells it at a significant discount from Amazon. I mix it with powdered coffee, and add some cream to it. I've tried using almond milk with it, but just a bit of heavy cream is better. Plus something to make it sweet. Allulose is my current favorite. Yum, yum, yum!
